Between the days of hitting the gym, jogging at a park, and practicing yoga, it might be a challenge to estimate just how much activewear you should have. Individuals who exercise more frequently need more spare clothes than others who exercise less. Let alone, the popularity of athleisure made it a fashion norm to wear a sports bra and leggings for simply running errands, or lounging at home. Activewear has become one of the basic daily fits in everyone’s wardrobes for its duality: gym wear and loungewear.
However, many have encountered this fashion problem: looking for the right leggings or sports bras that tailor-fit individual style and practical needs. The right selection of activewear will provide the fit and comfort to let you carry out daily activities and properly engage in your workouts. Here’s a guide on the types of activewear and how much you need in your wardrobe.
So what type of activewear do you need in your selection?
Tops
Tops including performance shirts, active tees and tank tops are perfect for staying cool and comfortable during workouts. They enable you to move freely at any angle and space. These are ideal for activities, including weight training, flexibility workouts, yoga, or outdoor runs. You may need at least four to five tees or tank tops to have options for different workouts and occasions.
Kate Galliano’s Luxe Cropped Top is a great addition to your activewear selection. Its lightweight, breathable fabric — made with the highest quality nylon blend — makes it ideal for low-to-high intensity workouts. The modern top design is stylish and suitable for gym and everyday wear with full coverage and support. This is available in neutral to pastel colours such as cream, rich lilac, ice blue, sage, and classic black.
Sports Bras
Sports bras are fundamental for the chest support and the coverage these garments provide; particularly, during high-impact activities such as running, HIIT workouts, or moderate-to-high intense training sessions. They are designed depending on the level of support needed to accommodate the intensity level of your workouts. A minimum of 3 high-impact sports bras and 3 medium-impact sports bras are recommended. If you prefer wearing an activewear shirt or top over your sports bra, 1 top requires 1 sports bra.
Kate Galliano’s Ribbed Seamless Sports Bra is a suitable choice of activewear for moderate to high-impact exercises. Made with four-way knitted ribbed fabric and tailored to a form-fitting stylish design, this sports bra can provide the maximum support and the right balance of comfort and flexibility. Our sports bra collection safely allows you to move with ease when worn during physical activities or even as a casual top for everyday wear. This is available in 5 colours: classic black, nude, light blue, purple, and pink.
Leggings
Leggings are the most common activewear among bottoms. It’s a versatile garment that can take you from a yoga session to groceries; from jogging at a park to studying at a nearby cafe. However, avoid the tendency to overhaul leggings. Generally, a maximum of 5 bottom activewear is recommended for individuals who regularly exercise and do weekly laundry. At least 3 pairs of full-length leggings and 2 pairs of capri leggings would be enough to cover different types of workout and loungewear preferences.
Kate Galliano’s Luxe Bottoms are a must-have piece in your activewear collection. Looking good has never been easier with its sculpting fit, and stretchy yet lightweight leggings made from the highest quality nylon blend fabric. It even provides a supportive high waistband for the abdomen area. These leggings can be paired with your favourite top — perfect for any occasion! As a workout gear, it is best paired with our Luxe Cropped Top for a complete set; available in cream, rich lilac, ice blue, sage, and classic black.
Shorts
Activewear shorts are a go-to choice, especially for outdoor activities like running and cycling or high-intensity workouts where large movement is often executed. Similar to leggings, it’s easy to get carried away with countless styles and designs of activewear bottoms in the market. It’s important to consider shorts in different fits and lengths to cater for your exercise. For example, performance shorts for running have a wider leg opening while tight-fitting compression shorts are suitable for strength training. At least 2 pairs of performance shorts and 2 pairs of casual shorts are recommended in your collection to supply your regular runs in a week.
Kate Galliano’s Bike Shorts are designed to keep you comfortable and supported in style — whether for your sweaty hour at the gym or a brunch date with friends. These are durable and luxurious shorts fitting for a sophisticated laid-back look for leisurely activities or everyday wear. For a stylish gym outfit, it is best paired with our Luxe Cropped Top for a complete set; available in multiple colours to choose from.
Hoodies
Hoodies and jumpers are thicker garments that offer protection during the cold seasons. These allow you to stay active for outdoor workouts or to simply layer up before and after hitting the gym. Lightweight hoodies are suitable for warmer weather while thicker options are for cooler weather. At least two hoodies or jumpers are recommended in your wardrobe.
Stay warm in style with Kate Galliano’s Luxe 23 Hoodie! This perfectly fits as the latest addition to your autumn and winter capsule wardrobe — as gym wear or casual wear. This is made from an organic cotton blend with an oversized fashionable fit designed to provide warmth and protection without compromising modern minimalist style. It is best paired with our tracksuit pants for a complete set; available in 8 colours to choose from!
Having the right activewear can make all the difference in how you feel and perform. Knowing how much activewear you should have can make it convenient without splurging on excess gym clothes. You’ll have enough activewear to supply your daily workout and enable you to achieve your peak performance.
